The cold of winter is near once again in Memphis, and there are a handful
of things that you could prep on your replacement
windowsand
doors to help you take on the long winter.
Whether it’s caulking your windows or doors or adding a storm door, here are a handful
of tips to help keep your home cozy as we go
back and forth with winter for a short while longer.

Re-caulk
your windows and doors. Caulking can help lower the
amount of drafts in your home and it might help protect
you from bugs or other unpredictable weather that goes through Memphis. Walk around your home and
be sure there aren’t any gaps or holes, and if there
are, get them handled.

Look
at your weather stripping. Look at the weather
stripping around your windows and doors, check
for any worn out or torn pieces, swapping out weather stripping where needed. Any pieces that
are worn out or torn could allow cold air to creep
in your home and cause the heating and cooling system to work more
often] because of that lost warm air.

Get
replacement windows. Too straightforward? The truth is
that older windows and windows with single-pane glass normally
aren’t as energy efficient as newer windows. Like many
other things that have been around for decades, developments in technology have permitted better energy performance.
Replacement windows and replacement doors are no different, so why not start
saving money on your energy expenses now?

Install
storm doors. Getting storm doors on your home can add another safeguard for your
home and can help with protection from bad weather and help decrease
air and moisture leaks.

Of course, there are a host
of other things that will factor in
to your decision regarding replacement windows, but these are a few to keep you on the right track. If at any point
you have questions regarding our replacement windows, stop by
